== == No because,
In a chemical reaction a compound is broken down into simpler compounds, or even into element, While as in synthesis or combination reaction, different elements or molecules reacts in a sequence to form a compound.
---- Synthesis includes reactions that form larger, more complex biomolecules from smaller ones. Biosynthesis consumes free energy because the products are higly ordered and contain more chemical energy. In decomposition reactions, larger molecules break down into smaller molecules. Free energy is released from the breakdown of molecules.

Is rusting decomposition or synthesis?
Rusting is an oxidation and can be considered as a synthesis of an iron oxide.
Is NaCl--Na plus Cl an synthesis?
Decomposition
What are three categories of chemical reactions?
Synthesis, Decomposition, Replacement
Name 3 chemical reactions?
decomposition, combination, and replacement. Thank you. Use this web. again!!
What type of reaction takes place when electricity is passed through acidified water?
Electric decomposition or electrolytic decomposition takes place (both are the same and mean the same)
Is a decomposition reaction almost the same as a synthesis reaction?
no
Is oxidation synthesis or decomposition?
Synthesis
What is the reverse reaction type of synthesis?
Probable you think to a decompostion reaction.
What happens during a synthesis and decomposition reaction?
i have no idea because im haveing the same problem
How are synthesis and decomposition reactions alike?
Synthesis and decomposition reactions are opposites. Synthesis: A + B -> C Decomposition: C -> A + B They both involve three elements or compounds, one of which is a combination of the other two. An example: N2O5 -> NO2 + NO3 Is a decomposition reaction.
What about combustion reaction makes them different from either synthesis or decomposition reaction?
The short answer is combustion reactions are a subset of synthesis reactions that require one of the reactants to be oxygen. Common combustion of organic molecules results in the formation of CO2 . However, it is not required that combustion be limited to organic molecules. They are different from decomposition reactions in the same way synthesis is the opposite of decomposition.
What is the opposite of a synthesis reaction?
It would be a catabolic reaction or decomposition reaction.
Are exothermic reactions decomposition reactions or are they synthesis reactions?
Synthesis reactions are generally characterized by being exothermic. Decomposition reactions are usually endothermic.
Is rusting decomposition or synthesis?
Rusting is an oxidation and can be considered as a synthesis of an iron oxide.
Is digestion a synthesis reaction?
Is this reaction an illustration of synthesis or digestion
How are synthesis and decomposition reactions coupled in cells?
The synthesis and decomposition reactions are coupled in cells through the process of metabolism. There are chemical reactions that are used in this entire process.
Synthesis and decomposition reactions in an organism are called .?
All of the decomposition reactions in an organism taken together is called catabolism, while the synthesis reactions are called anabolism.
